Softball Game

I love our whole team. Struggled in the first couple innings versus Southeastern Engineering, first game, 11-15. We played aggressively the second game, winning 17-5 against 1st Pentacostal. Great bunch of guys on that team, the real deal. I actually liked seeing Bob O. coming out to cheer us on, made me pumped up even more to play well. We are definitely getting much better, by the end of this season we will be ready for the tournament. YEA!!

Christian at 2 Weeks

softball

So our Church played softball last night--and my legs feel crazy. We lost the first game 9-10, but we won the second! I felt like I played like junk last night, but Mike F. said he felt the same way. We all go really hard on ourselves when we make mistakes, but thankfully no one on my team thinks less or worse of anyone because of their mistakes. We're all trying to get better, having said that, I can't wait to go to practice to work on some weak points. Like holding on to the bat after the swing. Mike F. says this is a common beginner mistake, thanks Mike for being honest. I feel like a newbie. Also, I can't seem to follow the coaches directions instead of my own instincts, which is a problem. Barry says that a good coach will know your speed better than you do. If Jesus knows my abilities better than I do, shouldn't I listen to Him when he tells me to do something? The whole game was a blast, can't wait for the next game.
